A statement said an Afghan unit on the ground had told coalition forces that the area was clear of friendly forces.

Many of these checkpoints are tactically unsound and present opportunities for the enemy, officials said.

Taliban fighters attacked the offices of a U.S.-based aid organization in the Afghan capital, setting off a huge explosion.

The U.S. is seeking 18 months to withdraw its troops from Afghanistan, while the Taliban wanted it done in six months.

The intra-Afghan dialogue fell apart at the last minute in a row over the large number of delegates Kabul wanted to send.

The explosion comes a week after the Taliban announced their annual spring offensive.

At least six people were killed and more than 50 were wounded as the insurgents attacked from multiple directions.

The three were killed Monday when a bomb struck their vehicle near Bagram Air Base north of Kabul.

Around 100 Afghan soldiers fled their posts and tried to cross into neighboring Turkmenistan.

The two weeks of talks produced two draft agreements between the militants and the U.S. government on a "withdrawal timeline.
